People and fans don't seem to realize that Loomis is the master of managing the NFL cap..has been for quite awhile. Saints fans have come to know this. And keep in mind that the cap is calculating Brees' $14mil cap hit regarding the tag..when he signs his long term deal, that number will be lower more than likely.

Not to mention many players have already agreed to reconstruct their contracts...off the top of my head: Evans, Will Smith, Lance Moore & Patrick Robinson.

Phewwwwww....that's a lot of money. We're getting closer to those per year baseball numbers we (I) was making fun of a few pages back.

If Aaron Rodgers finishes out his current contract before re-signing we could see the first $30 million player.

EDIT: Just looked at his current contract, and since he's hardly getting paid anything now (relatively), he'd be leaving way too much on the table by waiting 3 years. Oh well, guess he'll have to settle for $25 million.

No doubt. Even if he says all the right things and "takes less money to help the team," he's still going to be made a top 5 paid player with overall money in the 9 digit range.

No reason to complain, its drew brees were talking about here. What we should complain about are the teams unloading ridiculous amounts of money on scrubs so the elite guys start asking for what we are seeing now.
